projects to large companies with the objec;ve to analyze and discover collabora;on opportuni=es for the
development of new businesses and ventures together.
3. This concept has derived from our accelera=on model, which seeks the rapid mone=za=on of our projects by
connec;ng them with strategic partners, which have contact points and could poten;ally benefit by crea;ng
new business opportuni;es together.
4. Unlike a tradi;onal Demo Day, where startup founders offer a scripted presenta;on meant to introduce
themselves and their companies to poten;al investors, the Speed Day allows teams to present concrete
business ideas based on their products, their target market, and their strengths. These ideas are always tailored
to complement and to add value to the guest company's business.
5. Another big difference with tradi;onal startup events is that the Speed Day does not have a pre established
order on which teams are supposed to present, or any ;me limita;ons. Rather, the day is divided into
presenta;on rounds, where we encourage dialogue and exchange between the guest company and the
speakers. Because great ideas become even beEer when a conversa=on sparks around them.
6. Providing feedback and their own insights on the business and the opportuni;es the entrepreneurs brought
to the table, guest companies can help improve those ideas, evaluate how they fit in their plans, and come up
with new ideas they can develop in partnership.
7. Each Speed Day is set up for a par;cular company, or for a license within a company, so the line up of
startups that will be presen;ng is carefully selected from within our porFolio, and outside of it, in order to
ensure every business idea is an actual and relevant opportunity which both sides can explore and develop
together.
8. The Speed Day is the perfect space to discover new opportuni=es and to create collabora=on spaces where
big companies can leverage all of their advantages, and add value by incorpora;ng the latest innova=on and
the dynamism that the hoEest startups in the region have to offer.
